Brittany Murphy spent most of her life in the public eye. Soaring to fame after her 1995 role in Clueless, the actress was living the dream until her mysterious death at the age of 32. At the time she was married to Simon Monjack, 40, a Hollywood drifter with a shady history, who said his wife had been battling flu-like symptoms for days. Paramedics arrived at Murphy’s Hollywood Hills mansion around 8:00 am and found her grasping to breathe and battling pneumonia. Two hours later she died in the hospital. After her death, her mourning husband initially refused an autopsy, which many found suspicious. Per the coroner she died of pneumonia exacerbated by anemia and multiple-drug intoxication, a cocktail of over-the-counter and prescription meds – all in elevated levels. “She had been sick at least two weeks. Had they taken her to a doctor or hospital, it would have been treatable,” said assistant L.A. Coroner Ed Winter. There were rumors the house was filled with toxic mold and even one that she was murdered by her husband with her dad even claiming that an independent toxicologist found some evidence she had been poisoned with arsenic. To make the death even more mysterious, Monjack died just six months later, in a similar fashion.

The November 29, 1981 death of movie star Natalie Wood has been one of the biggest Hollywood mysteries for over 40 years. The star, who was 43 at the time of her death, was on a boating trip with her husband, actor Robert Wagner when she went missing. There was drinking involved, so when her body surfaced hours later face down in the ocean wearing the flannel nightgown, down jacket, and socks she disappeared in, her death was ruled an accidental drowning. However, the mystery deepened when bruises were detected on her body. For years, Wagner was the prime suspect, though never charged with the crime. Thirty years after her death the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department changed the cause of her death from “accidental drowning” to “drowning plus ‘undetermined factors.” However, Wagner, now 87, was never charged.

But the beautiful blonde’s life was cut short at the age of 36 when she was found dead on August 5, 1962, in her home in Los Angeles, a bottle of sleeping pills found next to her bed. Authorities labeled the death a barbiturate overdose and a probable suicide. However, many weren’t willing to accept that Monroe took her own life. Monroe, who had reportedly been involved in romances with both John F. Kennedy and his brother, Robert F. Kennedy, became the center of conspiracy theories, with some believing she was murdered as a result.

Rising hip-hop star Tupac Shakur was killed in Las Vegas in 1996 in a drive-by shooting.

According to a Los Angeles Times investigation, uncooperative witnesses paired with a lack of gang-related leads resulted in an unsolved homicide case. However, many believe the murder was tied to a failed attempt at his life two years earlier, which Shakur blamed on producer Sean “Puff Daddy” Combs and rival west coast rapper Christopher Wallace (“Notorious B.I.G.”).

The world was shocked when Full House star Bob Saget was found dead in room 962 at the Ritz-Carlton Orlando Grande Lakes in Florida on Jan. 9, 2022, while in town for a comedy show. "He was cracking jokes, waving to people in the lobby," a hotel employee told People about Saget’s demeanor in the days leading up to his death. "When people asked for selfies, he would run over and grab their phones to take the pictures with them, joking the whole time. He was a all happy, positive energy." Chief Medical Examiner Joshua Stephany, MD revealed in an autopsy that Saget's death was "the result of blunt head trauma," adding that drugs or toxins did not play a role in his death. His autopsy report noted severe fractures to the back of his head and around his eyes at the time of death. Authorities believe Saget may have fell on the marble floor of his bathroom and returned to bed after, estimating time of death around 4:00 am. “It is most probable that the decedent suffered an unwitnessed fall backwards and struck the posterior aspect of his head,” Stephany said.

The rocker, who was reportedly dependent on drugs and alcohol, was 27 at the time of his death. According to reports, Jones was been drinking brandy and taking sleeping pills and was "unsteady on his feet" with “garbled" speech the night of his death. The death was classified in his autopsy due to drowning, later clarified as "death by misadventure." However, his daughter Barbara Marion, maintains that he was murdered, with builder Frank Thorogood as the main suspect. According to Thorogood's friend Tom Keylock, he even confessed to the murder on his deathbed. "He said to me 'I’ll tell you something after all these years, but you gotta promise not to say anything until after I die...It was me who done Brian,” he said.

As a teenager, Divya Bharti made a name for herself in Tollywood and Bollywood cinema. However, her life came to a halt on April 5, 1993, when she fell off the balcony of her fifth-floor Mumbai apartment while enjoying a night with her husband and friends. While she had been drinking the night of her death and authorities believe she slipped and fell off the balcony, conspiracy theories swirled that foul play was involved, that a guest may have pushed her or Indian gangsters were involved. The last person to see her alive was her maid, Amrita, who died just one month later, which added fuel to the theories. "There was no question of suicide or murder...she was not depressed. She was the kind to give you depression!" her father said about the speculation. "It was an accident. She sat on the ledge, lost her balance and fell. Sadly, all flats had grills except hers. Cars would always be parked below but that night there was not a single one. She fell directly on the ground. I was shocked and lost my senses. But eventually you have to face the truth."

The hit TV series "Psych" not only entertained audiences with its humor and detective antics but also showcased a cast of talented actors with incredible stories of health, fitness, and resilience. In this article, we delve into the lives of ten "Psych" stars, highlighting their unique approaches to maintaining their bodies and navigating the challenges of fame. From veganism to dance floors, outdoor workouts to weight training, and even handling fame at a young age, these actors prove that there's more to them than meets the eye. Join us as we explore the fascinating journeys of the stars behind the beloved characters of "Psych."

1. James Roday Rodriguez

James Roday Rodriguez played the main character Shawn Spencer. Rodriguez is a vegan, and talked about how he decided to do this to VegNews. “I did it in steps. I gave up red meat at 19 when I was a freshman at NYU. Then I just sort of systematically and methodically kept cutting things out of my diet. About five years later, after college, I stopped eating pork. Then I cut out fowl, then fish, and finally—the last frontier—was giving up eggs and dairy about four years ago and going full-fledged vegan.”

2. Dule Hill

Dule Hill played Burton “Gus” Guster on the show. He shared one of his favorite workouts with AARP.org. “I have a dance floor in my garage. I have a Murphy [dance] floor. I pull the car out, I pull it down and I can dance. That's been a great place to practice my craft, to have an avenue of expression. I believe artists are artists, whether your expression is to a wall or a stadium full of people. Obviously, we prefer to have it reach someone but sometimes art is just for yourself to express. I'm thankful I can have my dance floor.”

3. Timothy Odmundson

Timothy Odmundson played Carlton “Lassie” Lassiter. He suffered a stroke and opened up about his recovery on the Brain & Life podcast. “Eventually after quite a while in working at this clinic, I was living in this sort of halfway house for people with brain injuries, where we were sort of learning independent living skills. They would take us grocery shopping and slowly building skills back up of just how you can survive. I remember specifically the day I was strong enough to just stand at the bathroom sink, could brush my teeth up without having to be supervised because even before that, it was every place I'd go, I had to either be moved in a wheelchair and then assisted say onto the toilet, or even if I was standing there to brush my teeth someone would need to be right there, spotting me. But finally I was strong enough, thanks to these great physical therapists, that I was cleared to do it on my own. So it still, every morning when I brush my teeth, I think at that moment to just think about how far I've come. And for my stroke anniversary last week, I decided I wanted to mark it in a really important way as I could.”

Maggie Lawson starred as Juliet “Jules” O’Hara on the show. She likes to do a lot of outdoor workouts to stay in shape. One thing Lawson likes to do is horseback ride.

7. Anne Dudek

Anne Dudek played Lucinda Barry in the first season. She shared her diet secrets in an interview with People. “I try to avoid grains because my stomach just does much better without them,” she said. “Along the same lines, I used to have a massive sweet tooth but have tried to cut out sugar completely. Half a banana in a smoothie tastes incredibly sweet to me now. I used to make and drink bone broth regularly and the high collagen in the broth helped me with some stomach issues. It sounds a little trendy and ‘L.A. weird’ but honestly made me feel much healthier!”

8. Parminder Nagra

Parminder Nagra played the role of Rachael on the show. She also starred on the series Maternal, which is about working mothers. Nagra tells Irish News that she relates to the role and tries to find a work/life balance. “A hundred percent, and we were all doing it in real time on that show. (We were) making sure our kids were taken care of and making sure that we were still able to do our work, and then feeling guilty if we weren’t there. But one thing that’s come out of doing this job is this: there’s a moment where Maryam’s mum, played by Shaheen Kahn – who played my mum in Bend It Like Beckham – says, ‘Have you ever considered that one feeds the other?’”

9. Mira Sorvino

Mira Sorvino played the recurring role of Betsy Brannigan. She talked about how she handles playing intense roles with TV Meg. “When you’re doing something that’s a little bit lighter and more sort of deftly switches from the dark to light back again, psychologically, it’s pretty easy to bounce out of it. Like, I would have fun rehearsing my stuff, but then, I have four children, so don’t really have the luxury of staying in character. I don’t. Like I have a very real life that awaits me the second I even look at my phone and have a million texts from this child and that one and that school and this one, you know, it’s just a lot going on. But I think it’s also experience, the fact that I’ve been doing this for so long makes it easy for me to jump in and jump out of it.”

10. Anthony Michael Hall

Anthony Michael Hall starred as Harris Trout on the show. He talked about how he handled fame at a young age to FOX News. "We had a running joke in my household – too much, too soon," Hall explained. "I didn’t anticipate being famous at age 15 just because I was a part of all these fun movies. To be very honest, it did freak me out when it first happened. The idea of being recognized, it’s awkward for adults. But it’s magnified at that age when you’re already dealing with all kinds of insecurities. It was very challenging. I would joke, but it’s true, that it took me probably 20 years to process being 15 because I had experienced so much in between. I’m certainly grateful for it and I thank God for having strong, great parents. They were a great backbone. But it was challenging. For the first couple of years, it certainly took some adjusting. I didn’t anticipate any of that."

2. Jennifer Love Hewitt

Jennifer Love Hewitt joined the show in its second season, and she plays Maddie Buckley. In an interview with Vulture, she talked about previous interviews she’s had to do, and comments she’s received on her body. “I was disappointed that it was all about body stuff, because I had really worked hard in that movie to do a good job as an actress,” she said. “Now that I’m older, I think, ‘Gosh, I wish that I had known how inappropriate that was so I could have defended myself somehow or just not answered those questions.’ I laughed it off a lot of the time, and I wish maybe I hadn’t.”

3. John Harlan Kim

John Harlan Kim plays Albert Han. He talked about his routine during the pandemic with The Sydney Morning Herald. “I wake up, knock back a few coffees, return some messages, try to get a workout in and tend to things I’d never prioritised before around the place. Like so many others, all my meetings are over video chats now, but you’re discussing these work arrangements that are surrounded by so much uncertainty, you know?”

4. Peter Krause

Peter Krause plays Bobby Nash on the show. He talked about having an optimistic attitude with MSP Magazine. “I feel like at my core I’m a Minnesotan. You know, I maintain certain attitudes. Like, ‘Could be worse!’ That very particularly Minnesotan thing where, whatever awful situation we’re in, we’re like, ‘Could be worse! Could be raining!’”

5. Ryan Guzman

Ryan Guzman joined the show as Eddie Diaz in the second season. In 2015, while prepping for Heroes Reborn, Guzman made sure to workout. He shared his process on Instagram. "Been hittin this gym up every day, for almost three months now,” Guzman captioned a post. “I've gained 18lbs so far. I'm starting to really like the changes I see and feel. #nothingcomeseasy #progress."

6. Oliver Stark

Oliver Stark plays Evan “Buck” Buckley on the show. Stark is vegan, and shared his favorite foods with Veg Out Magazine. “I’m a big fruit-eater. For as long as I can remember, fruits have been my favorite food. Pineapple, bananas, mango—the list goes on. [They’re] easy, convenient, and healthy! Oh, and delicious! Protein sources tend to be tofu, tempeh, seitan, and various protein powders (usually based around a 70/30 split of pea and rice protein powder, which a lot of ready-made powders adopt).”

7. Kenneth Choi

Kenneth Choi, who plays Chimney Han, is grateful for the fan’s support. He talked about joining social media and seeing the support with HOLA USA. “I am because when you don't have that feedback constantly, you just don't know. I had a sense that people liked him through my colleagues; every now and then Oliver [Stark] would say, 'Kenny, people really love you, they want you on social media, they want to interact, they think you're wonderful.' So when I actually go on social media, it is lovely to experience that. But on the other hand, you always have to keep a distance from it. Anybody who's very successful and steps into the limelight and starts to believe their own press is in danger. You want to try to keep a modest level head and I'm someone who is rooted in midwest values, and my mother and father are always in the back of my head talking to me.”

8. Rockmond Dunbar

Rockmond Dunbar plays Michael Grant on the show. He shared how he stays consistent and motivated with workouts to Muscle and Fitness. “I listen to guys like Kendrick Lamar when I work out, but when I’m on the elliptical, I watch motivational videos on YouTube. It’s all about positive thinking and pushing out negativity. If you want to be successful, don’t seek success. Wake up every day with a purpose, and be consistent and persistent in pursuit of that purpose. You can take breaks, you can go on sabbatical, but don’t ever give up.”

9. Connie Britton

Connie Britton played Abby Clark on the show’s first season. She talked about her wellness with Health Magazine. “Meditation has been a big part of my adult life — meditation, breathing, and connecting to whatever is my own version of my center,” she said. “It can be 10 minutes; it can be in the car while I’m driving or just taking a deep breath before I’m about to shoot a scene. It’s about going deeper than the external noise. To me, that’s a really important tool. And I really believe it helps with wrinkles. We can change our body chemistry through meditation.”

10. Tracie Thoms

Tracie Thoms talked about how she relates to her character, Karen Wilson, to TVLine. “I used to be very Type A and buttoned-up,” she says. “I graduated summa cum laude from Howard University with a 3.96 GPA. I was very, very strict with myself. I was very much like Karen. I understand her. But things happen in life that teach you not to sweat the small stuff. It was fun that this was Karen’s journey, but also mine. It was fun to see how far I’ve come, and how far she has come in terms of how she views the world and learned to let love into her life in a way that she wasn’t able to do even 10 years ago.”

1. Melissa Roxburgh

Melissa Roxburgh played the lead role of Mick Stone on the show. She talked about dealing with an eating disorder, comments on her body, and beauty standards with Shape Magazine. "I think it comes with growing up and realizing the people making those comments are not entitled to make those comments," she says. "I understand aesthetically pleasing people are fun to look at. Great. But that's also not real life and I think the older I've gotten, the more I've realized I don't want to portray unrealistic ideals. That is so not fun and frankly, quite fucking boring."

2. Josh Dallas

Josh Dallas played the main role of Ben Stone on the show. He also directed an episode of season four, and talked about it to Numero Magazine. “The main thing I learned was that it’s about preparation in that situation, to be as prepared as possible as the director. And that’s knowing what I wanted from the scene, knowing how I wanted to tell the story visually, knowing what we needed from our characters at that particular time. And then once I had all that preparation as much as I possibly could, I could jump in front of the camera as an actor and be in flow, because I knew that the director had our backs and I knew that the director knew what was going on. So I think as far as directing, it was all about preparation for me and knowing it as well as I possibly could from every single angle that a director needs to know. And then I could be free as an actor in front of the camera.”

3. Athena Karkanis

Athena Karkanis played Grace Stone from seasons one to three. She also made a guest appearance in season four. Karkanis spends a lot of time outside. One thing she likes to do is to go on hikes.

J.R. Ramirez played Jared Vasquez on the show. He talked about how his fitness has changed in the caption of this Instagram post. “You’ve gotta give credit where it’s due. I’ve spent most of my life trying to put size on. Working out 5 times a week. Trying different trainers. Different workouts… pretty much Bitching n Moaning about how much I hate the gym. Well little did I know one of the main things I was doing WRONG was Overtraining. Bout 8 months ago I found this incredible facility @diesel.optimization in Tampa, Fl. These guys @maxcicero @chrisrentas and many more have taught me how to workout in a way that properly engages my entire body without overtraining. Without feeling like I can get injured. Yes obviously having a trainer there makes a world of difference but The thing that really got me… is I’ve been doing this all on my own since April and I’m in the best shape of my life. I'm literally lifting two times a week and a day of cardio. That’s it…. You guys seriously rock! If you live in Tampa or pop in for abit I highly recommend checking them out! They’re the real deal. Much love fellas.”

Luna Blaise played Olive Stone on the show. She opened up about the show being canceled and picked up with Interview Magazine. “I signed a seven-year contract, we filmed continuously for four years. And then Manifest was canceled on NBC, and I had made my peace with that. But then Netflix picked it up for this last season, and we really did everything for the fans. It’s a great ending. And even though it’s really hard, I feel like I can finally wipe my hands clean and move forward.”

6. Parveen Kaur

Parveen Kaur played Saanvi Bahl on the show. She talked about being so close with the cast in an interview with Brief Take. “I think that Jeff Rake, our showrunner, has done a really good job of keeping us in the loop, you know, going out for dinners and we have a group chat, we’re constantly talking, and we have these means of communications that are with each other that are always open and I think that’s part of the reason that we’re all working so well together. Also, there’s no egos, because we just got lucky! There’s no egos on set. I mean, that can change, who knows, we’re only in the first season, but I don’t know the answer to why we get along. It’s just some people mesh and some people don’t, and luckily we just happen to be on a show in which everyone meshes very well.”

7. Holly Taylor

Holly Taylor played Angelina Meyer, and joined in the show’s third season. She did a “Inside A Day In My Life” interview with UsWeekly. In it, she shared her favorite workouts. “On a day where work starts later, I dig very deep for motivation and try to get a workout in. Boxing is a great mix of cardio, strength and technique.”

8. Alfredo Narciso

Alfredo Narciso plays the recurring role of Captain Riojas. He is also a Broadway star, and talked about what he likes it to Broadway World. “I do actually prefer theater. I love to rehearse, to discover and then to go out every night in front of an audience just to keep discovering, see how the performance goes. It's fun to work in television and film too but you get one shot at it and then you have to live with what's up there. So there's something really nice about being able to go out there every night and try and see what new things can come out.”

9. Curtiss Cook

Curtiss Cook played the recurring role of Radd Campbell on the show. He talked about his fitness routine to Muscleandhealth.com. “I realized that in order to keep this physical body, I needed to maintain it. I believe everything should be in moderation, so I started a regime strict enough that if I needed to be in great shape at any point, it wouldn’t take months on end to get there. I hover about six weeks out of what I’d call my ‘best body’, because I’m constantly doing something to maintain it.”

10. Francesca Faridany

Francesca Faridany played Fiona Clarke on the show. She also played Marie Curie in a play and talked about the experience to Women & Hollywood. “It’s essential for me to work with women. When we started this process, I found myself in a room full of basically 98 percent women, and it felt incredible. I realized that it remains very unusual to find myself in a place with that many women. That’s the biggest thing about this process that has been so impactful to me.”

11. Elizabeth Marvel

Elizabeth Marvel played the recurring role of Kathryn Fitz. She talked about why she wants her projects to Theatremania.com. “It's such a democratic approach to the arts, to make it accessible for everyone. The same thing is happening with education. And it's not about simplifying or dumbing down — it's more complicated, more demanding, and in some ways, more rigorous, but it's available to everyone. And that is so moving and so important. I'm so grateful for it because it feels like an act of service. It's not an act of ego.”
